Welcome Veterans! This page is dedicated to Wichita tribal
veterans who served or are currently serving in the U.S. Armed
Forces.

The Wichita and Affiliated Tribes is considering putting a
Veterans program in place for Fiscal Year 2018. We would like
your input on how to get the information we need from Veterans,
input on what you would like to see in a Veterans program and
suggestions on a new monument for the Tribe. You may mail in your
form to: Wichita Veterans Assessment, P.O. Box 729, Anadarko, OK
73005 or email veterans@wichitatribe.com.

The Sequoyah National Research Center (SNRC) at the University
of Arkansas is working with the World War I Centennial Commission
to create a web page on American Indians in WWI. The SNRC is
creating the Modern Warriors of World War I database to identify
all 12,000 American Indian servicemen. An email to the Tribe from
the SNRC stated, "Our goal is to create as complete a record as
possible for an online veteran's database. American Indian
servicemen of the WWI era are often times forgotten, with thousands
of individuals who have yet to be identified and recognized for
their service in the military. We want to remember their legacy and
honor who they were as American Indian servicemen."

The SNRC is seeking information such as full name, tribe,
hometown, rank, military unit, dates of birth and death, date of
enlistment, and any honors received. In response, the
Language/Cultural Program has compiled the following list from
various sources:

If anyone has any additional information about the service
record of the above individuals, corrections to the information or
know of others who should be added to the list, please contact Gary
McAdams at (405) 247-2425, Ext.169 or by email at gary.mcadams@wichitatribe.com.
